Customer Comment Card Program
Headquarters POC
NEW: No separate survey process for Visitor Centers. Visitor Centers are no longer considered as stand-alone PSAs; thus there is no more need to conduct a separate survey process for them. Visitor Centers are now included in the list of all PSAs in the Survey Calendar Generator and use the same Comment Card images.
Optional and Mandatory Year:
2022-23 is a MANDATORY year to conduct Comment Card Survey. Please see the most current memorandum for details. Below is the schedule for the next six years based on the requirement to conduct the surveys every three years:
- 2021-22 (April to May) - Optional
- 2022-23 (April to May) - Mandatory
- 2023-24 (April to May) - Optional
- 2024-25 (April to May) - Optional
- 2025-26 (April to May) - Mandatory
- 2026-27 (April to May) - Optional
Survey Cycles:
The Comment Card Surveys are to be conducted in a 3-consecutive month survey cycle, which would ideally correspond to the three consecutive months of the highest monthly visitation. The survey cycles are as follows; they are based on the season rather than on the fiscal year or the calendar year:
April/May/June
May/June/July
June/July/August
July/August/September
August/September/October
September/October/November
October/November/December
November/December/January
December/January/February
January/February/March
February/March/April
March/April/May
